- Alison is here to tell you aboout the public consultation to change the law on Primates Kept As Pets in the UK! We need you to go online today and fill in the form to help protect monkeys living in private homes in the UK!
consult.defra.gov.uk/kept-wil...
Imagine thinking you want a monkey inside of your house. Nonstop chaos.
Primates should never be pets. They need to be with their own kind. Their troops keep them on the happy road.🇺🇸
Chipping in from Colombia, where macaws, ocelots, spider monkeys, etc. are kept in indoor patios illegally. It should be strongest: cannot have wild animals inside a home with humans. Period. Thank you for your work. Remember as well, we must protect their habitats or else they will NOT survive.
I'd like to see a worldwide ban.
Adults often struggle to understand what human children's needs are, so it's hardly surprising they struggle with other species.
Thank Alison and the team for all your hard work with the beautiful and precious Monkey's and the legislation.
I'm in the USA . I hope you get enough people to end this travesty.
Allison I pray for this to be world wide, I wish myself from USA could help with this. Your work with the monkeys and for the trade is just unbelievable, you and Jim plus Jeremy (along with the staff) have worked and done so much over the years. Jim is proud of you and Jeremy for carrying on the lives work he/y'all started. Thanks again.
I wish I could help too. My state in the USA allows for “exotic pets” provided some pretty strict rules are met. Even a very small animal has to have full containment. They check everything. It sounds a lot like this. We don’t have to be a specialist, but we have to do it correctly. It’s so important. Monkeys are a lot of work and certainly worth the joy of having them around. I adore this wonderful woman. Thank you for your kind comment. Have a good week💛💛💛
I visited Monkey World on Monday with seven family members. We all loved it, especially the grandchildren. Your work is so important. Thank you so much. I’ve shared this video so that we can all respond to the proposals.
I want more Monkey Life, I've watched all the series so far, please more.
great job Alison! I hope this finally passes. It's sad that so many animals had to suffer before people do the right thing
Well done Alison! Here in the Netherlands we could sure need someone like you, who stands up for the lives of primates, big hug 🤗🐒❤️
I live in the USA but I hope that me giving my opinions on this document for the primates welfare helps you. And I want to thank you for your love and constant support of every primate in you caring hands and the whole staff/keepers.
But please put up a Thanks button so I can donate when I can and as often as I can. I respect all the work you have done and will keep doing.
Please hire someone to keep us regularly updated on this channel 😔
Wow this is an incredible piece of legislation. I’m hoping with your help and experience this can be passed and the pet trade will some day be a thing of the past.
Alison! You are Amazing! Thank you for all you do for these beautiful animals!
Thank you Alison! You are such a reasonable person. And, love what you do for our relatives!
Thank you, Alison, your exemplary work to provide better lives for captive primates is much appreciated and inspiring!
From Canada! Please have you say and do the right thing for these creatures!
Well done Alison, you do a fantastic job at Monkey World I really hope you get the help you need to sort this out once and for all.
Form filled. Thank you for having kept up pressure on this for so long.
I’ve just come across your channel. I wish I knew about this sooner but I hope that there was enough information to put arguments to the government to bring in this legislation. In my opinion there should be an outright ban as these are intelligent animals and we don’t have any right to keep them as pets. You are doing sterling work rescuing these animals and treating them with kindness and respect. I’m humbled by your dedication and commitment and you shine a light on the goodness of the human/animal relationship.
I really wish I could help with this, but I’m in the U.S. I pray that this works out for the betterment of all the primates in the U.K. , and that it would cause it to have a ripple affect with other countries to do the same thing. We must protect our animals, they we’re created by God just like is and gave to us to care for, for a reason.
I'm in Canada and can't imagine I qualify to respond. Please post another video if those of us not living in the UK can help. Spread the word people!!!
Done - I admire your hard work and persistence in getting the legislation this far. Keep up the amazing work
Will you please do another show?? It was absolutely amazing watching them grow, love everything you do!😊
It’s shocking to me that after the years that Alison has been speaking out about this, it’s still legal!
I shall notify my British cousin to read it and give her say.
Absolutely, they need to be either illegal or permit only with proof that you have the proper enclosures, environment, and education
The bird cages are cruel! If they can meet the needs of the animal and give it the proper attention and treatment, then I see no reason why someone could not give a primate a proper home… I do not think primates should be kept in a birdcages! An enclosure that offers the animal the ability to go outside and be in the trees and experience the ground with grass and other vegetation is important… if a person cannot offer this to the animal, they have no business having one… primates are not like cats and dogs… you can just get one and set out a bowl of food and water and call it good! These people sho7ld have to go through training courses before they are allowed to have a primate in their care… I do not know the laws in the UK so I cannot speak on them… but I do hope you all get things sorted out over there! Good luck!!!
Waiting for a new season.
Thank you Alison and I hope you can change the law because primates are should not be pets just keep doing what you can hopefully you can get that law changed
I hope this goes well for monkeys.
Done even though it was long I did it for them and to support you. Thank you
I sure hope this is made a law. You have been trying a long time for this.
The province where I live in Canada has a complete ban on primates as pets. If a research lab needs some they must submit a document stating why and a comprehensive plan for the care and treatment of the animal. Not all provinces have the same rules as we do. I know that right now those provinces are reviewing their policies but they plan to be less strict than ours. Most animals look cute when they are innocent babies but people don't think about the fact that the little animal was stolen from it's family and that in a couple of years it will be an adult wild animal and a danger to itself and it's human home. I hope you are successful in passing this law and successful in letting people know that this is cruelty for profit.
I don't know why the UK just doesn't make it against the law. They need to make it so people can't buy them. And then maybe it'll help the pet trade go down a little if people aren't buying them
I only just found out about this, too late sadly. I hope you got enough support for this. They are not meant to be domestic pets. Also it sickens me all the videos online of primates dancing in clothes for peoples amusement.
Thank you all done
Do we have to live in the UK to sign these documents? Because I would love to support the cause but I live in the US.
I am also in Vancouver Island, BC, Canada. Can people from the international community participate validly?
In Indonesia they are killing monkey in the thousands. There is one guy on you tube named yudi who has killed 17 mac monkey babies since Thanksgiving. It's horrible.
How do we watch seasons after Season 13 Episode 20 since Beyond Wildlife doesn’t show Monkey World anymore?
Cute Cute small monkey
Doesn't only apply to the UK or can Americans horn in on this I think the laws should be stricter for people who break them and places only like your place
Miss monkey world videos
How can I get one
I live in Victoria BC Canada 🇨🇦. and would love to help. Am I able to sign it?
I live in the USA and wondered as well. I would guess not though, as we aren't residents and it is their government and not ours. But we can hope!
I'm in Port Alberni, and you just asked the question I was going to ask. Thanks!
@@AngieJames4172 I live in the USA and yes I signed the document. It will ask you where you live Thank you for supporting Allison.
@@ZombieQueen819 Absolutely 🙂 I, myself am 100% against any type of primate ownership and am ever grateful for Monkey World and all that they do. I know this is not banning private ownership, but it is something. Baby steps.
Yeah, go for it, British People! In Switzerland it is forbidden in general. You need a regulatory Approval and will be checked on regularly. Requirements require special knowledge and are otherwise very high. This applies to the common squirrel as well as to all exotic species. Still there are a lot of honks who try to smuggle exotic species into Switzerland. I only can say: do as much as you can against this!
If I were queen of the world NO WILD ANIMAL would be a pet!!!!!
Unfortunately, before I had this epiphany I had bought and adopted parrots. After owning them a short time I realized how cruel it was to keep a creature of the skies who was do intelligent and emotionally complex. Thank the Lord I had the sense to get small and medium size parrots, so that 2 of them have predeceased me. The last one is 20 and has a life span of 30. Im 69 and pray she dies before me or Ill have to will her to a ssnctuary.
There are plenty, in fact a surplus of lovely domestic animals bred to thrive in a captive life.
Bravo to England for beginning the crackdown on
Primate ownership.
I know of 2 sweet vervets here in US that are being pdychologically abused on camera on Reddit. No one can fo snything zbout it. 😢
Hello, I've recently emailed the Monkey World email address asking is there any way I can buy seasons 13 on thru current? Been watching the TH-cam channel and unfortunately they are done at season 13. Is there anyway for Americans to purchase the rest of the seasons?? Huge fan of all that u guys do!!
I think alison was trying to work out a way to put them on a DVD.
The cost was prohibitive, but she was asking for peoples suggestions.
@maxine3587 yeah it's strange I can't find a way to buy it. Hopefully they just offer it by season similar to how some shows do thru TH-cam. I have watched seasons 1-13 a couple times now. Ready to start 14 lol
@@j_toledo419
I'd happily watch a couple of episodes every day for the rest of my life! 😊
I loved the series, and went to the sanctuary to see the stars "in person".
A couple years ago actually about 4 years ago maybe even longer anyways I have decided that I wanted to get a monkey and everybody said the little finger monkeys were great to have and that was the marmoset... Or maybe a couple chin or squirrel monkey but the more I look into it the more horrified I was at what people do to obtain these monkeys to make them pets when in reality you can't make them pets unless it has been a trial domestication four generation and it would take quite a few generations to make them domesticated for being a pet and I was seeing pet owners mutilated by their monkey the story about Travis and the lady with the friend that was horrified and I've seen clips work people are encouraging baby monkeys to literally to eat the smallest monkeys are in captivity that is the most horrifying thing to watch I didn't want to but I want to see if there was some means of my ability to help and really the only help I can give is by not getting one by not going in thinking a wild animal could be a pet and that they would be domesticated just cuz I threw a diaper on him and a bottle in there mouth doesn't quite work like that cuz you will know... When you take in a monkey you need to be very well aware of that animal has teeth and that animal male or female will reach puberty and start getting ramey to reproduce and during that time it becomes dangerous for your children if you're full-grown woman and it's a chimpanzee stuff like that or a full grown man with a female chimpanzee venom start seeing more and more people do they remember they remember somebody being kind but you're not kind when you try to make a pet out of them it's like tying a dog down by a leash but only making it so if they got up off the ground they would choke themselves trying to stand up to move away so they can't... That is kind of the same realm keeping a monkey their beautiful they're wonderful and got some of these animals are increasingly smart like when I watched Jeremy and Sally when she was coming to pass it really it broke my heart because she loves Jeremy... Ensure me showed Sally respect for her position in the group she never tried you never try to cross that he knew what Sally like and when the kids got their treats foods toys whatever she would go up high with whatever Jeremy set aside just for her but watching her feel horrible and him that was a level respect but he also knows going into the chimpanzees orangutans or even the marmoset can be very dangerous because they bite and they commuter late and they can do some serious damage... Now let's do more than just talk about the monkey you have the care of the Monkees you need to make sure they have an appropriate my son like everyday and you still need to give them a boost of D3 so that they can get keep their bones good and healthy then you need to figure out when someone shows this we've got the father died and he took over the role of and I'm drawing a blank on the name sorry about that you got stuff you have to pay attention to diabetes you have to pay attention to wait and you need to pay attention if someone is making a monkey a victim you don't like dark Charlie who wasn't getting any a lot of food and he had to wait and go running bag and sometimes he could steal something to get going but it was still these animals even though they're wild you cannot you have to do so many things medical health you need to help them mentally also to overcome what they were traumatized and horrified by Phoenix Presley if they're caraway's why would you want to kill you don't 15-20 minutes to get a baby for a couple thousand bucks do they not realize it a chimpanzee when one of them hit their stride and their males I'm sorry I'm bad with names lately you have the second-in-command who died of a heart attack and people thought more than once she was making a play thing for hernana (sp?) ... You've got stuff like that to deal with those big boys can bring down a thumbing ... I'm going to cut off because I I know I got a soapbox go in here and adri others meet heard than just letting myself hear me talk but I agree with Allison it is very important that wild animals stay in the wild... Poaching should not just be outlawed these guys that post these monkeys can we poach them put them in a tiny cage and feed them when we feel them when we feel like it... I wish all of you the best of luck on this pet trade thing we might be coming out of covet we don't know all of what kind of happened over the couple of years that basically the world was in lockdown I have a feeling it just made things easier to get away with the wrongdoings.. Allison I want I listen to your 15 your conversation about losing Jim I am truly sorry you lost her husband and I know that you two seem to communicate fairly well... I wish everyone the best of luck and all the endeavors and who knows someday I might knock on the door and go can I come in I want to see the monkeys sorry that's a nosey neighbor type of thing.. I promise not to do that to you.. everyone try to stay healthy happy just remember every corner you have a bell curve for what happens some good some great and not so hot 😀😃😁.. sorry couldn't make up my mind on which emoji so you got all three
should not have pets that are smarter then the person buying them so NO
Dr. Alison, I think because I watched your channel and orangutan jungle school, TH-cam feed suggestions brought me to monkey channels in Cambodia. It’s disturbing. They dress them in clothing and create scenarios and post the videos on line. Once they are no longer babies they are released into the wild. One little guy in particular has been so abused. Allegedly his owner drugged him, beat him, and broke his jaw. He has been released but seems to have fallen into the hands of some VOs that continue the abuse. This is a link to the latest video of Charley. th-cam.com/video/FsS0cpleh8U/w-d-xo.htmlsi=iMIFOKHoHkiLCABE. The jaw is much worse than when he was released a little over a week ago. I don’t understand why they don’t arrest Charley’s original owner. Allegedly she does this to all her monkeys. Allegedly, unlike Charley, they don’t get released back into the wild, they are killed. Whenever one of her channels is shut down a couple more are started. I understand that people need to make a living and making ‘cute’ monkey videos is the only way they think they can do this. I would like to believe that most people doing this are not intentionally cruel to these babies. However raising them as a human and releasing them into the wild doesn’t work out well for the monkey most of the time. The difference that I found with Charley’s original owner is that she allegedly abuses all of these monkeys by drugging and beating them. She then creates a video. For example, “Charley had to be released because he hurt Saka monkey so hard”. They will show a video of poor Saka monkey with an eye that’s been swollen shut. This is an example, I don’t really remember the name of the monkey that Charley hurt “so bad”. Anyway if you could take a look at the link, you can see the situation that Charley is in now. In some videos he looks drugged. I don’t know if there is anything that can be done for him. But I figured if anyone had connections, it would be you. I know that there a few VOs at the park that don’t interfere with the monkeys, but there are many who do awful things to upset them and ultimately get more views. There are a couple of video channels that show what happens when these animals are kept as pets. Those might be helpful in future presentations to illustrate your point about the pet trade. Anyway, I hope you or someone you know can step in and help Charley. It’s heartbreaking. Thank you for all of the hard work you do.
Ellen are you planning on building some more at the monkey World cuz you're going to need more space for all these monkeys and animals that you're going to be rescuing I'm sure it's a lot and I really think that the monkey trade should stop to I hope that's in the paperwork so
Alison, correctly.
